K-30 for the glass pentaprism used for the viewfinder.

But I'd just as soon buy a used K-5/D7000.

The V1 flash powered off the camera, and featured pan-and-tilt axis adjustment of the head. It was a bit inconvenient, but was absolutely the opposite of silly.

"Very happy! And when the 32mm f1.2 goes on sale, guess what? I'll snap one up!"

If you do, Nikon wins. But seriously, I think there is a strange kind of method to the madness: introduce item at...

The Aptina 1" is no worse than the Sony 1" in any metric worth a damn.

Nine hundred.

1 Ricoh GR, or
1 Nikon D7000 body + 40mm F2.8 micro AFS, or
1 Canon 7D body

or, my favorite, at current used prices: seven and a half Nikon 1 J1 bodies!!

"A Pentax Q by virtue of its small sensor (5:1 crop) shows much more detail than normal large sensored mirrorless and DSLR's"

I have no idea what you are trying to say, but I'm quite certain you...

That's exactly why this lens is f/1.2 and $900, sadly: if you want something cheaper, you can already just grab the F-mount adapter and your nearest 35mm. So Nikon had to push far beyond that.

Pentax makes a camera in standard black and charges extra for silver.

Fuji makes a camera in standard silver and charges extra for black.

"photojournalists who use the Leica M"

Such a creature exists?

Arguably, the JC Penny CEO was only an idiot for failing to realizing the stupidity of the store's customers: that they would not by a shirt for $25 unless it was marked up to $50 and then...

Priorities. dpr already has the D7100 review up. It's unlikely the MX-1 will ever see a full review.

The "preview" is the de-facto "short review", but I'd prefer they drop the pretense: just give...

"proves that the sun does occasionally come out in Seattle. "

Ha ha. That was /exactly/ what crossed my mind looking at the thumbnails:

"Hey, those look much nicer than usual ... oh yeah, it's...

I own the J1, V1 cameras. So I'm sympathetic to the Nikon 1 system, but not to your complaint.

- That the J1 is cheap now is not relevant to what dpreview can say about either camera, its up to...

Fascinating X10-X20 comparison shots on page 8.

I resized from 4000 to 2000 pixel baseline, nudged the X10 contrast up by 20%. The images then looked identical to me. I would say, also, that the...

It's an S110 with an EVF. A camera designed with a clear and singular purpose: stealing back market share from Canon.

@marike6

Jaques very clearly asked about "real world" performance, and you quote DxO mark...

Based on previous GR Digital models and the Coolpix A, I can say they "are cut from the same cloth". Both cameras are made to a very high standard.

You switched to mirrorless for run-that-by-me-again?
